HI I'M VICKI, NICE TO MEET YOU
I have a wealth of experience working in both international agencies and independent design studios across London, New Zealand and the South-West. Over the past 20 years in the industry, I have built a diverse, flexible skill set and have particularly strong visualisation skills in layout, publication and presentation design. My clients attest to my strong work ethic, attention to detail, as well as my excellent communication and collaboration skills that help me fit seamlessly into their teams.
Since returning to the UK in late 2021, I have been supporting design studio Yoke with their publication design and various digital projects for nature-based clients as well as Global Marketing Agency, Indicia Worldwide, with campaigns for their clients Heineken, Nissan, Konica Minolta and Wiltshire Farm Foods.
I also pick up ad-hoc design projects via recruitment agents and word of mouth. Prior to this, I worked permanently agency-side in the retail, luxury goods and travel, fashion, education and health sectors.
I'm happy to take on both Design and Creative Artworker roles on a freelance basis and can work in-house or fully remote. If you or your design team need some freelance support, please get in touch to find out my availability and rates.
WORDS FROM MY CLIENTS
Vicki was a freelance graphic designer for me during a particularly hectic period where there was a huge amount of urgent work to execute. I needed someone with exceptional design skills, impeccable attention to detail and a designer who was able to get up to speed almost immediately. Vicki was all that and more. Her work was always perfect and she would often pick up on things that I hadn't seen myself. Just as importantly for me, she's a great person and we had some hilarious interactions over email. I'm very glad I have Vicki in my professional toolbox!
Kath Speller, Global Marketing Communications Manager, Datamars
We have worked with Vicki a lot over the past few years, calling on her design skills and experience to support the team again and again. She has senior knowledge of the long and short-form report design process and leads projects with us helping direct our younger team of designers to create a world-class output. Vicki's attitude is extremely positive, and is like a breath of fresh air in the studio. Her work ethic is 110% and multiple times she has gone above and beyond to help us meet our deadlines. I will definitely be asking for Vicki's help again when the project arises - I can't recommend her highly enough.
Jay Bigford, Creative Director, Yoke
